1. First, check if the equations are in y=mx+b form. If not, change them to that form.
2. "B" is the y intercept. Mark that on the graph.
Note: If the inequality sign is 'greater than' or 'less than', the line is dashed. If it is 'greater than or equal to' or 'less that or equal to' the line is solid.
3. Next, look at the slope (m) if it is just one number, put a one underneath. If not, leave it as it is.
4. Look at the top number. Move that many spaces up on the y axis. Do the same for the bottom number, moving horizontally on the x axis.
5. If the inequality sign is less than, shade underneath the line. If it is greater than, do the opposite.
6. Repeat steps 1-5 for the second equation
7. Shade the section of the graph that the lines and their shading intersects darker.
